Magicube re-imagines the puzzle cube for a mobile, touch experience.

This deceptively simple game takes a 2D image divided into a grid of square pieces and jumbles them into a new configuration. The player must shift the pieces back into their correct positions, re-forming the original image. The columns and rows “wrap” around the grid: When you slide a row to the left, the piece on the far left slides back into that row from the right.

So, you can’t just move one piece, you need to plan a sequence of shifts that gets all the pieces where they need to go. Otherwise, you end up chasing pieces around the grid. It’s a sliding block puzzle…or a 2D puzzle cube…or maybe a 2D puzzle doughnut?
